Fortunato Bros. Cafe & Pasticceria was founded in Brooklynâs Williamsburg neighborhood in 1976 by three recent immigrants from Naples, Italy: Salvatore, Mario, and Michael Fortunato. They brought over their classic old-world recipes for Italian cookies, biscotti, cakes, and pastries including cannoli and sfogliatelle, and the bakery quickly became a beloved neighborhood fixture. The brothers can still be found sipping cappuccino at the shop today, and theyâve handed the reins to their children to bring their legacy into the future.
Each of Fortunatoâs baked goods are still made according to the original recipes, made by hand from scratch with only the highest-quality ingredients. Theyâve also made some modern additions to the menu, like the now-famous Rainbow Cookie Cake. Fortunato Bros. is a true classic, and now itâs shipping nationwide!
